TO the mix of ministers of the Gospel
with politics, we have often heard the
story, told by old settlers of Lake town
ship, about a preacher who INDUCED in
q TRADE of abuse of General Jackson
at a Methodist Camp Meeting during
the Sunday morning service. 1t was
announced that he would preach i'll the
evening. In the discourse he COM
meneed again his political slang when
a number of young Democrats came
prepared and let fly simultaneously a
dozen or more rotten eggs, which
proved a settler. That mans useful
ness as a minister Ct the Gospel was
destroyed. Members of the cloth
should take a lesson from Rev. Ball,
who attempted and who sought. motor
iety in attacking the character of Cleve-
land. And, the Blaine Republicans
never hear the name of Brchard men-
toned, but they curse. H1

HISTORIAN FRoUDE in a letter
opposes granting any form of home
rule to Ireland, and says the Irish peo-
pie can be governed more easily than
any people in the world under military
rule.
OF course this sort of stuff is Tory
talk and that party never favored any
rule but force rule. This was the
trouble a little over hundred years
'ago'in America.
